Exam #1 will be available in DLC Testing Center. You must take all 3 sections of Exam 1a during one visit to the Testing Center, within these dates. After the DLC closes each evening I'll grade the Exams taken that day Please don't use the Canvas "Grades" to look at your exam grades!! It doesn't score If you want to improve your Exam 1 score -- you can take Exam 1b!! If you decide to take Exam 1b, you can choose to retake just the terms section, just the Your grade for the Exam will be based on your best score on each section of the Exam. If you Sep 20 will be the last day to complete Unit 1 Pink Things for points Exam 1 Grade |
You are expected to complete each and every Pink Thing! Be sure to finish each one!
+ On-line Prelude Exercises should be completed before the lecture to which they refer
*Terms & Hw Pnk Things will be most valuable to you if you complete then before coming to the
next class.
Each class and lecture builds upon the information from the last class, so the better you know
what we've already covered...
Also, Laboratory assignments will build upon material from lectures, so the better you know
that material...
There are a lot (bunches, skads, does it never end???) of these (&%$@#ing & wonderful) Pink Things!
Generally I developed each
one because
performance
wasn't as good on some part of the Exams or on Laboratory
assignments as I
had hoped. My 30+ years of
research on this class
shows the
Pink Things raise Exams by
about 6-8% and laboratory assignments by about 8-10%.
So "Do your Pink Things!!"
